Description
This is the real story of many groups of peoples that have lived in the Yellowstone area in prehistoric and historic times. Primary among them was the Shoshone group called Tukudika, or Sheep Eaters, who remained a rich and abundant way of life closely related to their primary source of protein, the mountain sheep of the high-altitude Yellowstone area. Written for general readers, Mountain Spirit presents a vivid picture of the vanished way of life of a people whose existence and accomplishments have been largely ignored in histories of Native peoples.
